Yang dropped out of her stance, approached Whenua and bowed. "It's an honor to meet you Toa Whenua." Whenua was stunned at the girl's actions. "Where'd you learn that stance!?" Onewa demanded about to touch yang's hair. His hand was whacked away. "Ow." He said before looking at the offender. "easy luv, you don't want to cut even a lock of her hair." Neo said prepping her parasol by extending its hidden blade.
"Whatever." The toa Metru of stone muttered. Yang turned to Onewa. "Does the name Krayix ring a bell." This got a reaction out of Whenua. "Vakama's friend? Yeah he's the toa of matter." He said. Onewa noticed the blond girl's hair overshadow her eyes. "He isn't a toa. Not anymore at least." She said. the two toa Metru looked at each other. "We'll explain inside." Neo said.
"So, you said Krayix isn't a toa anymore." Onewa said. Yang nodded. "He gave up his power to save my youngest daughter. I owe him a great debt." Tai said. "So, Krayix is a Turaga now." Whenua said. "Yes luv. Doesn't look any different when he was still a toa, save for a limp and different clothes." Neo said.
"So, what's your story. From the way you know us I assume Krayix told you." Yang nodded. "I owe Krayix two times." Onewa frowned. "two?" he asked. "the first one is when Krayix saved ruby and Blake, another member of our team, from some Vahki in an underground city. The second is what my dad told you.
"Before we ran into you three I noticed two spirit stars flying across the sky." Whenua said. "you have toa here?" Yang and Neo shared a glance smirking. Tai noticed it and decided to answer for his eldest daughter and Neo.
"Yes we do, seven to be exact, but only two are here on patch." He said. "Where are they?" Whenua asked. Yang cleared her throat gaining the two toa Metru's attention. "I am Yang Xiao Long, Toa of Earth." She said. "And I am Neopolitan Torchwick, Toa of Stone. We are part of a team called the Toa Vale." Neo said with a slight bow.
"Krayix was our mentor, training us when our elemental powers revealed themselves." Yang said. "From what the others said, yang was the first to manifest her elemental powers." Neo said while said girl was sweat dropping remembering what happened.
"What happened?" Whenua asked while Onewa looked at him. "they're human toa like Krayix, and you're worried how they manifested their powers when we should be worried where our brothers and sister are." The toa Metru of Stone said. "Wow, Krayix wasn't kidding when he said that you were a worry wart Builder." Yang said saying builder in matoran.
Onewa looked at her in shock. "How do you know matoran." He asked "Krayix, he taught the six of us while my sister already, and somehow, was able to speak it fluently." Yang said in perfect matoran. "Where's Krayix, I'm going to need to a word with him." Onewa said rubbing the top of his mask.
"From what I know, he's in menagerie with Blake." Neo said. "Who's Blake and how'd yang's elemental power manifest." Whenua asked bringing up the previous question before Onewa's outburst. "Blake is our toa of water," Neo said before snickering "and Krayix's girlfriend." Onewa and whenua's jaws dropped at that last part.
"As for my elemental power manifesting…" yang started. "it was during a sparring match in which my powers manifested. I nearly killed a fellow toa, she had yet manifest her powers." Onewa frowned. "What was her name and element." He asked. "Her name's Pyrrha and she's our group's Toa of Fire." Neo said.
"I threw a punch that was not only able to crack the floor but the wall as well. It also made a decent sized crater at the impact site." Yang said rubbing the back of her head with her natural arm having taken off her prosthetic one. "How'd your friend survive." Whenua asked. "Krayix intercepted it. Said that it was a good punch but hurt like hell." "Heh. Krayix in pain that's a first." Onewa said.
"have you forgotten that Krayix broke his arm fighting makuta with Vakama?" Whenua asked sternly. Yang's eyes widened. "So that really did happen." This got the two's attention. "Krayix told us about his life in Metru Nui and his adventure with you and the rest of the toa Metru." The blond toa said. 'and Lhikan's death.' Neo thought of a question.
"Quick question. How are you two Toa?" she asked "Last I heard you lot were Turaga." Onewa and whenua looked at each other. "Hm, that's actually a very good question. Why are we toa again?" Whenua said. Yang rolled her eyes.
"Either way, I owe Vakama a big one." She said. "How do you owe him." Onewa asked. "He saved both my life and Blake's. who knows how Krayix would have acted if Blake had died." Whenua chuckled. "We would know." Onewa nudged him before whispering.
"Lets hope Nokama doesn't go mama bear on Blake." Whenua nodded. "She's THAT protective of Krayix?" Yang asked as her eyebrows raised in shock. "Oh yeah. She takes the role of big sister very seriously." The toa Metru of earth said.
"So, this is the Toa Vale?" Onewa asked holding a photo taken after the battle of beacon. "Yeah, the girl holding hands with Krayix is Blake. She's a faunas or in yours terms, a Rahi person." Yang said sweat dropping. "Just don't call her that. It's slightly offensive to her." Onewa nodded. "Which one's your sister?" Whenua asked.
"The girl with the white and red cloak." Yang said as whenua picked up another photo, this one with Team RWBY and Krayix. "That's Krayix alright. But where's Ruby?" he asked. Yang pointed at the girl dress in black and red. "That's Ruby before Krayix gave up his powers, and the photo Onewa's holding is after he gave up his powers." Whenua frowned
"Your sister's a pure toa." He said "a pure toa?" the two Toa Vale asked at the same time. "In other words, she's like us and Krayix." Onewa said placing the picture back facing his and whenua's successors.
Meanwhile in menagerie
Blake took in a deep breathe of air while standing at the docks in her hometown. "What's the kitty doing by the sea?" Blake smiled and turned to the voice. "just enjoying the seaside view Krayix." She said to the human Turaga as he approached. "Your parents await." Krayix said as Blake sighed. She hadn't told her father and mother that she was dating yet. "let's get this over with."
As the two departed a figure climbed out of the water. "Good to see you old friend." The figure said in a feminine tone. "It can't be…. Nokama?" Krayix asked as he and Blake turned around. "it's been a while Krayix." The toa Metru of water said glaring at Blake.
A/N: And cut. Chapter 3 in the bag. Now I'm going to try to keep swapping pov for the Toa Vale. Each chapter regarding a single group will be label as their element up until they have the big reunion. Please read and review. Constructive criticism is allowed. That being said peace.
Reviews:
Berix: I love the theory you had, but this chapter shot it down big time. So if you have any theories as to how ruby can be a pure toa without using a toa stone or how Krayix's power made her a pure toa let me know.
